[QUOTE="AZSnake98, post: 13255836, member: 33501"] Soooo I was down in Rocky Point Mexico for the 4th. For the most part it was great, but I got a really bad gash from a broken beer bottle on the side of my hand while there. I cleaned it thoroughly with rubbing alcohol and super glued it shut. Before I get some know it all in here griping about how super glue isn't ok for cuts... Ive been using super glue for cuts since I was knee high to a grasshopper and never had a problem. I've also done a lot of research on this since Ive been back in the states. The reason I post this question here is this is a rather deep cut. (muscle / fat could be seen before closure). My question is, if its not getting infected (no bad smell no pain no swelling after 5 days) should I just leave it alone? Or get acetone, remove super glue, clean again, and glue it again. I'm not going to a doctor for this it's not infected or life threatening it just looks gross from blood mixing with the glue and drying. I'm just wondering if it would be best to leave it alone, or remove the glue... see how its looking, and clean/glue again or wrap it and leave it? There are so many conflicting opinions on this on the internet and I was wondering if anyone had any hands on experience. Thanks in advance guys! :beer::beer: EDIT: I forgot to mention Ive been on antibiotics since a day after it happened. A friend of mine that went with us is a walking pharmacy. [/QUOTE]
